The discus fishes (Symphysodon spp.) are economically important ornamental species. Thirteen microsatellite markers were developed from a CT(12) - and CA(12) -enriched whole genomic DNA library of Symphysodon discus. Allelic variability was tested on 44 individuals of two species (S. discus and S. aequifasciatus). Allelic richness ranged from two to 11 alleles per locus and observed heterozygosities from 0.083 to 0.998. All loci were at Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium, and no pair of loci showed linkage disequilibrium within a species. Cross-species amplification was also successfully performed in the Neotropical cichlids Uaru amphiacanthoides, Hoplarchus psittacus, Hypselecara coryphaenoides, Pterophyllum sp., Mesonauta sp. and Heros sp.  相似文献

We carried out a phylogeograhic and population genetic analysis of fishes of the taxonomically contentious genus Symphysodon from the Amazon basin in order to test hypotheses of relationships among taxonomic units, and potential processes driving diversification within this genus. We sampled 334 individuals of the genus Symphysodon from 24 localities that span the complete geographic distribution of this genus. The sampling scheme included all known phenotypic groups, species and subspecies. Analyses were based on 474 bp of the mitochondrial control region and 1443 bp of the exon 3 of RAG1 gene. We observed 102 mtDNA haplotypes defined by 89 segregating sites, and 5 nuDNA alleles defined by three segregating sites. Maximum-likelihood, Bayesian-inference and statistical parsimony analyses revealed three well defined monophyletic groups. These clades corresponded to the 'green' and 'blue' groups of Symphysodon aequifasciatus, and to a previously morphologically unrecognized clade from the Xingu River drainage. These three clades were nested within a paraphyletic assemblage consisting of the 'brown' group of S. aequifasciatus and of both described subspecies of S. discus, the 'Heckel' and the 'abacaxi' discus. Nuclear allele sharing was observed among groups, but there were significant differences in frequencies. We inferred several processes including past fragmentation among groups, and restricted gene flow with isolation by distance within the paraphyletic 'brown+Heckel+abacaxi' groups, and suggest that differences among the 'blue', 'Heckel' and 'brown' groups are potentially maintained by differences in water chemistry preferences. We further inferred colonization of the western Amazon basin by an ancestor of the 'green' clade. The 'green' group was the only group with a pattern of haplotype distribution consistent of a demographic expansion, and the divergence of this clade from other groups of discus was consistent with recent geologic evidence on the breach of the Purus Arch which separates western Amazon from eastern Amazon. We further hypothesized that the differentiation of the 'Xingu' clade could be due to vicariance events resulting from Pleistocene sea level, and thus Amazon River level fluctuations. We discuss the bearings of our results on the current taxonomy of this group, and on the biological reality of the different forms, subspecies and species of Symphysodon concluding that we are probably observing a process of diversification, and therefore taxonomy will remain contentious.  相似文献

Genetic relationships and variation in meristic counts, body shape and colour were examined in a large sample of Symphysodon collected from several locations in floodplain habitats along the length of the Amazon River. Surprisingly, mitochondrial DNA indicates no difference between the two historically described species, Symphysodon discus and Symphysodon aequifasciatus , but shows that non-clinal variation exists with a distinct lineage found in the western Amazon. This lineage is consistent with a colour form that is distinct from other Symphysodon lineages. This form has a parapatric distribution and is recognized as a distinct species, Symphysodon tarzoo . Adaptation to floodwater habitats supports genetic cohesion across a large range preventing fine scale regional diversification of the genus. Possible explanations for the unusual set of distributions for genetic and colour characters relate to the history of the Amazon basin and the probable division of lowland species when submerged geologic arches influence surface topology.  相似文献

The occurrence of Sciadicleithrum variabilum on the gills of discus Symphysodon aequifasciatus larvae 7 days after hatching is reported for the first time. This suggests that altricial larvae are susceptible to Monogenea following gill differentiation and before complete yolk resorption.  相似文献

Summary The inheritance of 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase (6PGD), malate dehydrogenase (MHD), aconitase (ACO), phosphoglucomutase (PGM), phosphoglucoisomerase (PGI), and glutamate-oxalacetate transaminase (GOT) polymorphic isozymes was studied in leaf extracts of nine hazelnut progenies using horizontal starch gel electrophoresis. Evidence of Mendelian inheritance was obtained for ten loci: 6-Pgd-2, Mdh-1, Aco-1, Aco-2, Pgm-1, Pgm-2, Pgm-3, Pgi-2, Pgi-3, and Got-2, which permitted the analysis of 28 alleles (2.8 per locus). The presence of null alleles was detected in Pgm-1 and Pgm-3. Joint segregation analysis of pairs of isozymes revealed four linkages: Mdh-1-Pgi-2, Aco-2-Pgm-2, Pgm-1-Pgm-3, and 6Pdg-2-Pgm-2.  相似文献

The Neotropical red discus fish, Symphysodon discus, originates from the Amazonian basin and has a discoid body. Although this species is popularly used in aquaria and is exported as an ornamental fish, it has not been intensively studied. The purpose of this work was to study the morphological and histological aspects of the ovarian development in the red discus. Forty females of S. discus of varying body sizes and different stages of gonadal development were used in this study. The ovaries were weighed and examined macroscopically in order to observe the maturation stages. Histological staining of hematoxilin-eosin was used for microscopic observations of the ovaries. Macroscopic observations showed immature, maturing, mature and partially spent stages of ovarian development. Microscopic examination of the ovaries revealed five stages and five phases of ovarian development. The ovaries of the mature females showed all the different phases of oocyte development, indicating the multiple spawning habit of this species.  相似文献

Summary The progeny of four crosses between a structural heterozygote for a reciprocal translocation and a homozygote for the standard chromosome arrangement were analyzed in rye (Secale cereale L. cv Ailés) for the electrophoretic patterns of eight different leaf and endosperm isozymes and also for the meiotic configuration at metaphase I. The Pgi-1, 6-Pgd-2 and Mdh-1 loci are linked to each other and also to the reciprocal translocation. These loci have been located on chromosome 1R. The Mdh-1 locus is located in the interstitial segment of chromosome 1R, between the centromere and the breakpoint. The Pgm-1 locus has been located on chromosome arm 4RS and is linked to Pgi-1, 6-Pgd-2, Mdh-1 and the reciprocal translocation. The estimated distance between the Pgm-1 locus and the centromere is 14.98 ± 2.27 cM. Therefore, the reciprocal translocation involves the 1R and 4R chromosomes. Other linked loci detected have been Mdh-2b and Est-2 (7.40 ± 2.90 cM) and Got-3 and Est-2 (5.62 ± 3.07 cM). These three last loci are located on chromosome 3R and their order most probably is Mdh-2bEst-2Got-3.  相似文献

The linkage relationships and chromosomal locations of 14 enzyme-coding genes were investigated in Capsicum annuum L. (garden pepper) by monitoring segregations in backcross and F2 progeny of an interspecific cross between C. annuum cv. NM6-4 and C. chinense CA4 and by studying allele dosage effects in five hybrid primary trisomics. These conclusions can be reached: 6Pgdh-i is on the metacentric chromosome corresponding to the noir trisomie; Idh-1 and Est-3 are on chromosome 12; an aerocentric chromosome which corresponds to the pourple trisomie; Idh-1 is near the centromere and Est-3 is distal on the long arm of that chromosome. The other loci can be arranged in the following linkage groups and are apparently not located on the trisome corresponding to any of the trisomics tested: Est-4-18cM-(Pgi-1-3cM-Pgm-1); Prx-7-2cM-Tk-1; Pgm-2-2cM-Skdh-1; Est-1-OcM-Est-7. Linkage and dosage data combined with karyotype and meiotic analyses of the two species and F1 hybrids suggest that Idh-1 and Skdh-1/Pgm-2 are near the breakpoints on the two chromosomes involved in a reciprocal translocation for which the two species differ. One locus, Pgm-3, was detected only in C. annuum cultivars and is apparently the result of a duplication of Pgm-2 which codes for cytosolic phosphoglucomutase activity. Pgm-2 and Pgm-3 are not tightly linked (approximately 20% recombination) which supports the proposal that Pgm-3 originated from a mechanism other than unequal crossing over. A comparison of the linkage relationships of enzyme-coding genes in pepper with those of putative orthologous loci in tomato reveals that two linkage blocks, Est-1-Est-7 and Pgi-1-Est-4, may have remained intact since the divergence of Capsicum and Lycopersicon.  相似文献

The oxyuroid nematode Ichthyouris bursata Moravec & Prouza, 1995 (Pharyngodonidae) was recorded from the intestine of discus (Symphysodon spp. and hybrids) cultured in discus farms in Bangkok and Nonthaburi, central Thailand, during 2006 and 2007. This material made it possible to study in detail the morphology of this little known parasite species, using both light and scanning electron microscopy (the latter not previously used for the male). The SEM examination showed taxonomically important morphological features not previously reported or erroneously described, including the presence of three bilobed lips, a pair of sclerotised plate-like structures and a median cone-shaped outgrowth on the posterior cloacal lip, short 'hairs' on the cloacal lips, digital phasmids in the male and, sometimes, up to two filaments on the egg poles. This species is of South American origin, which was confirmed by its recent record from a free-living blue discus S. aequifasciatus Pellegrin in Brazil. The reproduction and transmission of I. bursata in the conditions of aquarium tanks is probably permitted by the direct (homoxenous) life-cycle of this parasite.  相似文献

Genetic variation of 1017 specimens of codworm, Pseudoterranova decipiens, collected from fish and seals at 23 sampling locations in the North Atlantic and Norwegian and Barents Seas, was analysed on the basis of 16 enzyme loci. Three reproductively isolated species, provisionally designated P. decipiens A, B and C, were detected, showing distinct alleles at the following loci: Mdh-1, 6Pgdh, Np, Pgm, Est-2 (between species A and B); Mdh-3, 6Pgdh, Np, Sod-1, Adk, Pgm, Est-2, Mpi (between A and C); Mdh-1, Mdh-3, Sod-1, Adk, Pgm, Est-2, Mpi (between B and C). One F1 hybrid was observed between P. decipiens A and B, but this apparently does not lead to any gene exchange between the two species, which do not show any evidence of introgression. No hybrids or introgressed individuals were observed between P. decipiens C and either A or B. Genetic distances among conspecific populations were low (average Nei's D 0.001-0.005), even though they were collected thousands of kilometres apart, indicating high levels of gene flow within each of the three species. The values of Nei's index D were 0.44 between P. decipiens A and B, 0.57 between B and C, and 0.79 between A and C. Estimated evolutionary divergence times, using Nei's formula, range from 2 to 4 million years. Differences between P. decipiens A, B and C were also found with respect to genetic variability, morphology, geographical distribution and hosts. Mean heterozygosity values of 0.08, 0.05 and 0.02 were obtained for P. decipiens A, B and C, respectively. Preliminary morphological examination of adult males, previously identified by multilocus electrophoresis, revealed differences in the relative size and pattern of caudal papillae. P. decipiens B is widespread in the study area, whereas P. decipiens A was found only in the North-East Atlantic and Norwegian Sea. In this area P. decipiens A is most common in the grey seal, Halichoerus grypus, while the common seal, Phoca vitulina, is the main host for P. decipiens B. In Canadian Atlantic waters, where P. decipiens A is apparently absent, P. decipiens B infects both grey and common seals; a few specimens were also found in the hooded seal, Cystophora cristata. The only definitive host so far identified for P. decipiens C is the bearded seal, Erignathus barbatus; P. decipiens C appears to be widespread, occurring in both the North-West Atlantic and Barents Sea.  相似文献

Linkage relationships of 19 protein coding genes in watermelon   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
Summary Segregation of seed proteins and isozymes was analysed in two Citrullus crosses. In the first cross an F1 hybrid between C. lanatus and the wild species C. colocynthis was used as a female parent in a backcross to C. lanatus. In this interspecific cross the segregation of 17 markers was analysed. Four linkage groups were identified: linkage group 1 includes the genes Est-2, Skdh-2, Tpi-1, Fdp-1, Sod-1 and Prx-1; linkage group 2 — Got-1, Got-2 and Sp-4; linkage group 3 — Pgm-1 and Gdh-2; linkage group 4 with Pgi-1 and Pgi-2. In the second cross an F1 hybrid between two C. colocynthis accessions was backcrossed to one of its parents. Seven loci were scored and no new linkages were found.  相似文献

Genetic variation as identified by starch gel electrophoresis and enzyme staining was studied in seven populations of the northern pike, Esox lucius L. Samples derived from populations in northern U.S., Canada, Swedish fresh water, Swedish Baltic, the Netherlands, England and Ireland were analysed for variation at between 10 and 26 enzyme-coding loci. Polymorphism was found to be restricted to three loci: Sod-1 (mitochondrial superoxide dismutase), Ldh-2 (heart-type lactate dehydrogenase) and Got-1 (cytoplasmic glutamateoxalate transaminase). Mean heterozygosity ( H ) over all seven population samples was estimated to be 0·019. This extremely low variability, relative to reported data for other fish species, is discussed in terms of the structure and possible origins of pike populations.  相似文献

The genetic control of nine enzyme systems has been analyzed in the preserved juniper species (Juniperus excelsa Bieb.) from a natural population of the Mountain Crimea. Isozymes were extracted from endosperms of the haploid seeds to be studied by electrophoresis. As a result 16 loci have been identified, of which 14 loci were polymorphic (Gdh, Got-1, Mdh-1, Mdh-2, Mdh-3, Acp-1, Acp-2, Acp-3, Lap-1, Dia-1, Fdh, Sod-1, Sod-2, and Sod-3). Analysis of allele segregation in heterozygous trees confirmed monogenic inheritance of these alleles.  相似文献

Genetical control of nine enzyme systems has been studied in preserved juniper species (Juniperus excelsa Bieb.) of the natural population of the mountain Crimea. Isozymes were extracted from the haploid seed endosperms and separated elecrophoretically. As a result 16 loci have been identified. Fourteen of them were polymorphic (14--Gdh, Got-1, Mdh-1, Mdh-2, Mdh-3, Acp-1, Acp-2, Acp-3, Lap-1, Dia-1, Fdh, Sod-1, Sod-2, Sod-3). Analysis of the allele segragation of the heterozygous trees confirmed their monogenic inheritance.  相似文献

The effects of graded hypoxia on the physiological and biochemical responses were examined in two closely related species of cichlids of the Amazon: Astronotus crassipinnis and Symphysodon aequifasciatus. Ten fish of each species were exposed to graded hypoxia for 8 h in seven oxygen concentrations (5.92, 3.15, 1.54, 0.79, 0.60, 0.34, and 0.06 mg O(2) L(-)(1)), with the aim to evaluate hypoxia tolerance and metabolic adjustments, where plasma glucose and lactate levels, hepatic and muscle glycogen contents, and maximum enzyme activities (PK, LDH, MDH and CS) in skeletal and cardiac muscles were measured. Another experimental set was done to quantify oxygen consumption (MO(2)) and opercular movements in two oxygen concentrations. Hypoxia tolerance differed between the two species. Astronotus crassipinnis was able to tolerate anoxia for 178 min while S. aequifasciatus was able to withstand 222 min exposure in deep hypoxia (0.75 mg O(2) L(-)(1)). Suppressed MO(2) was observed during exposure to 0.34 (A. crassipinnis) and 0.79 mg O(2) L(-)(1) (S. aequifasciatus), while opercular movements increased in both species exposed to hypoxia. Higher levels of muscle and liver glycogen and larger hypoxia-induced increases in plasma glucose and lactate were observed in A. crassipinnis, which showed a higher degree of hypoxia tolerance. Changes in enzyme levels were tissue-specific and differed between species suggesting differential abilities in down-regulating oxidative pathways and increasing anaerobic metabolism. Based on the present data, we conclude that these animals are good anaerobes and highly adapted to their environment, which is allowed by their abilities to regulate metabolic pathways and adjust their enzyme levels.  相似文献

The chromosome number of the polyploid species Glechoma hederacea was found to be 2n = 36 in a sample of 93 ramets derived from 27 sites in N and C Europe. Variation in 10 enzymes was surveyed in material from S Sweden and S Czech Republic. The genetic control of variation was investigated using segregating progeny from crosses and self-fertilized heterozygous plants. The genetic analysis comprised 30 of 32 putative alleles detected in the geographical survey. Five loci (Aat-2, Tpi-1, Tpi-2, Pgd-2 and Mnr) behaved as isoloci with one copy of a locus being monomorphic for a common allele, the other di-allelic for a common allele and a variant allele. In four isoloci (Pgd-1, Pgi-2, Mdh-2 and Adh), both copies of the duplicated locus were polymorphic, with one allele common to both copies and with another allele unique for each copy except for Pgd-1 where both copies were tri-allelic. Three loci, Pgm-3, Skd-1 and Skd-2 were regarded as being non-duplicated. Segregation ratios for all enzyme loci were in close agreement with expectations based on disomic inheritance. Our data suggest that the tetraploid G. hederaca is a diploidized autotetraploid.  相似文献

Bromus tectorum, a devastating plant invader in western North America, had entered Pennsylvania by 1790. Although rare, or extirpated, in the east until the 1850s, it was collected with increasing frequency after 1859 from Vermont to Virginia. Using enzyme electrophoresis, we analyzed 38 populations of this grass in the eastern U.S. to determine their genetic variation and structure as well as assess their relatedness to populations in the west. Genetic variation among eastern U.S. populations is low: mean number of alleles per locus (A), percent polymorphic loci per population (%P), and expected heterozygosity (H(exp)) are 1.01, 1.05%, and 0.002, respectively. No heterozygotes were detected. The eastern populations are genetically similar: mean genetic identity for all populations was 0.990 with values among population pairs ranged from 0.913 to 1.000. Thirteen populations in eastern and western North America shared Pgm-1a and Pgm-2a, while eight populations shared Mdh-2b and Mdh-3b. Other alleles detected in western North America (Got-4c, Got-4d, and Pgi-2b) were not, however, found in eastern U.S. populations. The invasion of North America by B. tectorum occurred through multiple introductions on both coasts; results from historical and genetic evidence suggest that eastern populations stem from a minimum of two introductions. The 19th century westward spread of B. tectorum from the East appears to be plausible.  相似文献

We tested the manner in which the number of fry influences the costs and benefits of mucus provisioning in discus fish (Symphysodon aequifasciatus) via two experiments. In experiment-1, we found that fry grew more rapidly when they were raised with parents than when raised without parents, suggesting that fry benefits from the mucus provisioning by parents. In experiment-2, a reduction in the body weight of parents correlated with brood size. The growth rate of fry did not linearly correlate with brood size. We discuss the functions, costs, and benefits of mucus provisioning in discus fish.  相似文献
